royal navy, navy. so i think fair to say that they thought of the americans as sort of provincials that they probably had the to be a good but there wasn't a ton of evidence it yet. they had had some interaction with the americans. i can talk, i think, a little more about this in the mediterranean during the first barbary war and the west indies, during the quasi war with in the 1790s. so they thought that the americans had the potential. they knew that the americans had very good. but it remain to be at the beginning of the war, sort of whether the united states navy would be able to live up that potential or not. i think it's a very good point that if you look back to 1812, the focus for was very much on europe and you had, you know, in sort of the iberian, you had wellington doing his thing whilst in east. you had sort of napoleon getting bogged down around moscow whilst the royal navy was trying to contain napoleon, france at the time. so you had you always had some leftovers on the western atlanti

my brother works in the navy. i am emergency management and i also do rates across america, giving back around christmas time. but like i said, the navy families in the supermarket, i see guys with the hats on, and i thank them for their service. host: thanks for sharing your families story. guest: if i could mention, you talk about your father going in at a very young age. what i always marvel at in the military across all services is everyone has a chance. everyone is given an opportunity to perform, to advance based on merit. you talk about a career of advancement to leave as first petty officer. that is several promotions, for those who don't know. it is based on how hard you work , how well you integrate into the team, and how you helped perform the mission. host: he mentioned a family member who served during the korean war, a war commonly referred to as the forgotten war. what do you think about that term today? guest: i guess i can understand that. my father served during the time of korea, but not in the

you see the crow is what navy men call a rating. each man keeps his crow under his mattress until he's earned the right to wear it. when the time comes, he can't get the needle and thread out fast enough that emblem says i am now already ol man. third class. any time you see a fellow wearing it. you can bet boots he knows his stuff. i don't mean that to be bragging, but only the fellows who have gone through a navy communications school know what it really means to read it it. next day, with the skipper doing the honors, we marched out on the parade ground to get our diplomas. i wish you could have been there, pop. i know you have a war job. besides, the government does not want people traveling around the country unless they to. sort of proud of that sheepskin and mailing it home to you. mother. well, we got our orders to shove off today and all packed. i can't you where we're going, but i'm on my way. yes. the folks back home are sort of proud them, too. it seems that just the time jim wrote he'd finish school, brother joe wrote t

[applause] last year, i told the class2023t the lifeblood of the rules-based international order is sea o rder. over the past year, we have seen how important your mission is. sea power projects american power in principle to the world. our leaders, allies and partners depend on it. our foes and rivals envy it. today from the south china sea to the red sea we are seeing new challenges to the open world of rules, rights and responsibilities filled with american leadership after world war ii. at times like these, freedom of navigation rides on the ways of u.s. navy ships. as officers, you will help us increase security and model american values worldwide. our sailors and marines let the u.s. military project power anywhere on earth. so,gd we're depending on you to secure the world's sea lanes for the free flow of ships, commerce and ideas. we're depending on you to sail, fly and operate wherever intern

s. navy, it's all about inclusivity and diversity. and it's also all about rape, it seems that the u. s. military services, i'm also experienced the tidal wave get the navy. oh, you like own of rape rates number 40 and there's we're not going to get our make rate. funny again had this, we both a half so so unfortunate people man and women have been raped in the u. s. military . and that's just in the last year alone and 29000 people in the us army say that somebody stuck a finger where they shouldn't adult. and that includes apple on the back of the aircraft guy who's probably have the more brakes than a garden. his finger, so it seems getting cozy with your comrades and particularly cozy with your comm rates. is a bit of an anglo saxon thing was a long ago that a parole the or a ask you that will air force to young guy who joined hoping to take the skies. and he took something else. he actually took a motor tube. right up the jack, see my friends. i meanwhile, back in europe to india, usa, as i like to call us the parole tony blinkin

if you look at the navy's in nato, it's the third largest navy in nato. about 55,000 people, yet, we take those ships and everything from the national security to smaller patrol boats and go to nations. meet them where they are in that competitive phase short of conflict. exercising fisheries agreements, law enforcement agreements and again partnering and helping a nation create their own capacity to build their own sovereignty. this is our nation's competitive advantage. not only through the nations welcome us, we're partners of choice. the town was buzzing because there was a white ship. we took ship riders to help them and force their own fisheries. they had nothing in almost five years. ewe helped them get out. board some chinese shipping vessels. we can have some significant impact whether in the arctic or indo-pacific. >> i want to go to nato. thanks to vladimir putin, nato is stronger than ever. we got two new members. 18 members are meeting their 2% commitment or higher. there's the rumblings within nato about european strategic autonomy. do you f

admiral rader, who was commanding the german navy and had commanded the german navy since, 1928, was in many ways an man in his strategic, tactical views. believ ships, surface cruisers and. he didn't ne fondness on airplanes or submarines things that would in fact prove decisive in the next conflict. instead, he envisioned vast german navy composed of fast cruisers and battleships. these would sneak into atlantic and blockade the u.k., all part of germany's ze plan. you can see all of the ships were werprogram, but few of these surface ships were actually built before the of war. rader had been told by hitler to bank on having until 1948 to build up german naval power something that obviously did not come to pass. in addition, hitler had not been sure, as we've already discussed, whether or not great britain would declare war at all. and asxñ a result he had not priority his his navy he he hoped to avoid a ns race. the sort of thing that had guaranteed british entry into the first world war. and in part as a result, the german would be by far the weakest of the three main branches o

get the navy. oh, you like all of rape rates number 40 and there's, we're not going to get our make rate funny. again, had this we bore anytime half so, so unfortunate people man and women have been raped in the u. s. military. and that's just in the last year alone and $29000.00 people in the us army say that somebody stuck a finger where they shouldn't adult and that includes apple on the deputy aircraft carrier who's probably had the more breaks. and i've gotten this figure. so it seems getting cozy with your comrades and particularly tells you what your comm range is. a bit of an anglo saxon thing was a long ago that a parole that or yes could at what air force to young guy who joined how many to take to the skies. and he took something else. he actually took a motor tube, right up the jack. see my friends. i meanwhile, back in europe in the usa, as i like to call us for all tony blinking has again turned up in key of the hard line of democracy and freedom as not actually to heart on democracy

and like the boys in the navy and burning the rivers off . but these boys and burning the river off to get to the copper is by nomics money . well spent so this is most game use directors because so the joke i made about the guys burning the cape, the river off the cables. the robot has to be burnt off a cable. if you're stealing copper in order to get to the pure metals, then you sell the metal to get food. i made a comparison between the u. s. navy, burning the rubber literally to friction rober, meaning condom fiction being what the 2 boys get up together in the bunk bed. and that's the joke. so we're going to head off from the leafy silver. i'm so washington, i wanna fly across the ocean to the beautiful island of taiwan. an integral part of chinese territory that's according to the united states, the british europeans and everybody else, really who except that it is china. but they still decided to stick the long. molly finger of democracy and influence in appleton full of weapons and causing the whole show to melt down a bit. and that h

the german navy had somewhat less success.e main german submarine at the start, the second world war was the type submarine pictured here. it basically a slim steel cylinder, about 170 feet long and 30 feet across. it had large diesel engines, two propel it through theharged a battery that was used for movement while underwater. now by the way, you'll see a lot of mentions of knots in your readings. this is a nautical measurement that's derived from the old practice of tying knots in a rope and dragging it behind a ship to to see or calculate speed. i'm going to stick with miles per hour. and in my remarks today to keep things a little bit simpler for you, the type seven's would let it run around 20 miles per hour on the surface, and about half of that underwater when relying on battery power. these diesel engines required oxygen. so when underwater, the submarine had to run on battery power and it was quite limited in so. it could remain submerged for about 24 hours which technically made it a submersible instead of a true. b

but i would offer two things first of all we have a navy and a lot of other navies that are going to partner with us to do whater it is we need to do to determine the line of behavior and respond to aggression if necessary. it's not just about a number of shifts. this is about the ecosystem and we are going to be able to put together the shifts, aircraft, submarines and the joint force partners whetherd it's the army, the marine force we've got the space for us and the air force and our coastt guard partners operate extensively. we think about it has a joint were fighting ecosystem and we workingexperienced with with each other and working with allies and partners and i think that gives us the winning edge every time. >> you served on our only icebreaker four-star a much younger version of me served on that ship in the 80s and getting it done for the nation primarily focused around the breakout and the support of the southd pole station. operating in thedu arctic nothig up through the northwest passage and circumnavigated the continent and plans to do that again. they are definitely
